Individual SessionsPatrycja made me feel comfortable immediately. She has a warm and non-judgemental presence. I always felt held and supported as we worked through some very old and deep traumatic memories.

Couple SessionsPatricia has helped us immensely. She has the perfect blend of theory and practice—we love how she listens to where we have found ourselves and rolls her sleeves up to get into some concrete solutions. She is empathetic, intuitive and very strong in her work. We are so happy to have found someone to bring out the freedom and love we are capable of

Individual SessionI came to Patricia when my world felt as though it was crumbling around me and all I could do was watch helplessly. I witnessed my relationships, my work and my family fall apart and I felt so desperate to fix it but I really had no idea how. Patricia has been a compassionate and caring person for me, listening to all of my problems and helping me to reconcile with myself. I have never felt such a sense of ease and confidence knowing that I can face any future problems in my life with the tools that she has given me.
My Story
In my life as a migrant I had to overcome many barriers: having to re-establish myself personally and professionally, find a sense of connection and meaning in a society culturally different to where I grew up. Now over a quarter of a century later I can say that I embraced that challenge and it helped me develop my cross-cultural lens allowing me multiple facets of different interpretations and diversifying perspectives. This is what I greatly cherish.
